Behind the Sessions: A Real Parent’s Guide to ABA Therapy

Your child’s therapist has a plan. Now you need one too.
Behind the Sessions was written for every parent who has ever sat in a waiting room wondering what was actually happening on the other side of that door. Written by NickiiJean, a behavioral therapist, parent trainer, and advocate with 15+ years of experience supporting children and families, this guide takes you inside the therapy room so you never have to feel like an outsider again.
In honest, jargon-free language, NickiiJean breaks down everything you need to know about ABA therapy. From understanding your child’s behavior and choosing the right therapist, to advocating confidently in IEP meetings and practicing skills at home. Because no one knows your child better than you, and that makes you the most important person on their team.
This is the guide you wish someone had handed you on day one.
Inside you will find seven chapters covering the full ABA journey, a complete parent workbook with trackers and reflection tools, visual routine charts your child can use daily, printable picture cards, and real talk from someone who has been in that room with hundreds of families just like yours.
